Song: Sad and Blue/Penny Towers Wilber vocal
Reviewer: John Walradt
Positive Comments: Ah, the 60s. Those were the days, weren’t they? When cars had distinct looks and burgers were just 25 cents. While sitting on the brown vinyl in the restaurant, the jukebox had a song like this playing with a Doris Day voice, lush strings, piano, and the melody breezing up and down the scales. Lyrically simple, it tells you not to blue because your untrue love left you, because in that true kind of optimism that you would find in a Nat King Cole song, you’ll find love again!
Constructive Comments: This song does what it’s supposed to do, and as the market goes, there’s always room for a song like this where they are looking for an early 60s kind of sound. Maybe it’s not the kind of song that will change your life. The lyrics sound like they have several cliches, the words rhyme because they can, the melody blends in with most anything else from that time. But for mood, it works, and you don’t have to change that.
